run-tests: introduce a `HGTEST_REAL_HG` variable for test

It turns out that currently, `hg` and `which hg` can point to different things
because `hg` is an alias… This is annoying because script and pieces of test
are unknowingly using the wrong `hg`.

We will fix it in another changeset. However some test actually need to use a
real `hg` binary and not some `chg` or `rhg` equivalent. So we introduce a new
variable with the right value and we put it to us in the appropriate location.

Put here definitions of blacklists for run-tests.py

Create a file per blacklist. Each file should list the names of tests that you
want to be skipped.
File names are meant to be used as targets for run-tests.py --blacklist
option.
Lines starting with # are ignored. White spaces are stripped.

e.g. if you create a blacklist/example file containing:
 test-hgrc
 # some comment
 test-help
then calling "run-tests.py --blacklist blacklists/example" will exclude
test-hgrc and test-help from the list of tests to run.
